Blocking Insecure Content

You will see this message if the webpage you are visiting a page over an HTTPS connection but the page is attempting to run non-secure elements.

If a website is secured using HTTPS then all javascript, plugins and CSS stylesheets used by the page must also be securely delivered. If these other items are not secured then, potentially, hackers could interfere with the website and modify them for unauthorized purposes. If insecure elements are allowed to run then the page cannot be considered as 'HTTPS' secured.

When Comodo Dragon first encounters this issue on an insecure page, it performs these actions:

Loads only the secure items on the page

Does not load any insecure items

Presents the 'This page has insecure items' message bar

This means the page is still HTTPS as it stands because Dragon has only loaded the secure items. However, because the page is not running certain items, it may cause the page to display incorrectly. Clicking 'Don't Load (recommended)' will maintain the situation described above and all data on the page will be secured. You will see this message if the webpage you are visiting a page over an HTTPS connection but the page is attempting to run non-secure elements.
